Greens were the only thing that was green the Fairways are dirt. The tea boxes were pitiful and for $90 you think it would be better. I know they went through the hurricane but they need a lot a lot of work.

The pro, Drew and the lady that checked me in were both great! Very informative and helpful!

The greens were in excellent shape. The fairways were far from perfect, but reasonable when you consider they were covered with salt water for months!

Enjoyed the course and the experience!

Playing on Sanibel Island at high season was a treat

The staff was friendly and accommodating. A little crowded on the front 9. Wide open on the back.

If you are a high handicap player like me, bring a lot of balls for the front 9 - many opportunities to lose them.

Back 9 is a lot more forgiving.

Greens were incredible.

Fairways not so much. We had an agreement that we could pick a ball off of the mud and place on the nearest patch of grass.

All new greens

For those who haves played this course in the past few years you will recall the poor condition of the greens. This has been corrected with brand new greens on every hole.

Now you appreciate the contours of the greens and consistent green play for the whole course.

Improving

Staff among the friendliest anywhere. Tee boxes were in good shape. Greens were in excellent condition. They are working hard to get their fairways back after Ian ruined them. This course and staff deserve our support to recover and ensure that there are golf options on Sanibel Island.

Trying to come back

The course really was damaged by hurricane Ian. They are trying to keep it running and I admire and applaud their efforts. The greens are in great shape , the fairways are very beat up. Nice layout and if you think about the greens fees helping with the recovery, it’s worth it. Pace of play was fantastic, finishied in about 3 1/2 hours

Disappointing

Sanibel is still suffering from last year’s hurricane Ian. The course is rough… lacking grass on the fairways. There are no bathrooms anywhere on the course and the one bathroom in the pro shop has no doors. There is no food or water available.

The bridge to the island is backed up with traffic and construction. It took way too long to get both on and off the island.

I wouldn’t have minded if they had offered a very discounted rate. $80 is too much for such poor conditions.
